I have been married to a wonderful Christian man since 1976. The Lord has blessed us with two daughters and two sons. I consider each day the Lord gives me on the earth yet another chance to serve Him.

Garden Vegetable Dip

 Great on crackers or for a veggie dip.  Bagel chips also go really well with this.



GARDEN VEGETABLE DIP


Ingredients:

*1 (8 ounce) packages of cream cheese or make your own, softened

*1 (8 ounce) container of mascarpone cheese or make your own

*1/2 cup finely shredded carrots

*1/2 cup red bell pepper, chopped very small

*1/2 cup green onions (including the greens), sliced very small

*1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped fine (or 1 tablespoon dried)

*2 tablespoons fresh dill (or 1 teaspoon dried)

*3 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped (or 1 1/2 teaspoons dried)

*1 garlic clove, minced fine (or 1 teaspoon dried minced garlic)

*1 teaspoon onion, minced (or 1 tablespoon dried onion flaked)

*1/2 teaspoon salt

*1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

*1/2 teaspoon celery seed


Directions:

~Cut up veggies, and place in a mesh strainer (I let them sit for about 1/2 hour to drain as much liquid as I can).  This step is optional 

~In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese and mascarpone cheese together until smooth.

~Mix in the remaining ingredients until well incorporated.

~Place into a container and cover with a lid.

~Refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving.
